Early Bird Deadline

There are only two weeks left to get your entries in for the 47th annual National Magazine Awards! Enter by January 12 to save on submission fees with the Early Bird Rate. The final submission deadline is January 19, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. EST.

This year's awards feature 29 categories, with two special awards, and seven additional categories that are part of a cross-programming initiative with the Digital Publishing Awards. Submissions are open to Canadian print and digital magazines and to Canadian citizens or Permanent Residents (landed immigrants) whose work has appeared in them during the 2023 calendar year.

The NMAF strives to ensure that the awards recognize the best work from a broad range of Canadian magazines and, to that end, is offering the SECOND ENTRY FREE to magazines whose annual revenue is $200,000 or less. If eligible, your magazine will receive two entries for the price of one. The rebate applies only to the first two entries.
